Volha Stasiuliene, BACP

Volha Stasiuliene is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She brings nine years of experience supporting people who feel stressed, anxious, depressed, or lost. Volha speaks English and Russian and works from the United Kingdom. She aims to create a respectful and compassionate space for people to talk about what’s happening in their lives.

Volha uses a blend of approaches tailored to each person. She draws on client-centred therapy to follow what matters most to the person in the room. She uses cognitive behavioural ideas to help spot and change unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Elements of dialectical behaviour therapy and psychodynamic work are also woven in when useful.

Common concerns she helps people with include trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, mood issues such as depression and bipolar, and self-esteem worries. She also supports people facing relationship wounds like abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, and communication problems. Practical problems such as caregiver stress, family of origin issues, and separation are within her focus too.

Her style is warm, interactive and non-judgemental. Sessions involve talking through current problems, noticing patterns, and trying small changes between meetings. Volha aims to tailor each plan to a person’s needs rather than follow one set method.

If someone wants to begin, they follow the provider's matching process and complete a short matching questionnaire. She does not work with international clients, so bookings are arranged for people in the United Kingdom.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping the person lead the conversation. In practice this means the therapist reflects what matters to the person and follows their pace, which can suit emotional and relational concerns.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It uses simple tasks and experiments between meetings to try different ways of coping with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems or eating concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, and then agree on a way forward together. This collaborative planning can change over time as needs shift.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats with the therapist before booking. The practical benefits often include fitting sessions into a busy day, shorter check-ins when needed, and not needing to travel. These aspects can make it easier to keep therapy consistent while you manage work, family or caregiving demands.
